The equipment is intended for multiple pass automatic or semi-automatic submerged arc welding of girth joints of turbine rotors in deep cutting. Welding of steam turbines rotors and shafts of turbines is performed on the bench, cutting depth reaches 400 mm. There is also possibility of surfacing blades journals of guide vanes and other cylindrical surfaces with diameters from 250 to 1500 mm.
During the modernization of "Schumacher" the specialists of Pilot Plant of Welding Equipment of E.O. Paton Electric Welding Institute together with the engineering and technical services of the enterprise replaced welding heads, mechanism of heads drive and control system.
When the work was carried out the quality of weld joints has been improved, the cycles of manufacturing equipment have been reduced and labor productivity has been increased.
Representatives of Pilot Plant of Welding Equipment of E.O. Paton Electric Welding Institute provided instruction and trained the personnel of "Turboatom" in terms of the welding bench operation.
Currently, the low-pressure rotor of K-325 turbine is about to weld on "Schumacher" for Uglegorskaya TPP.
